CHICKENS COME HOME TO ROOST

It's all so ironic.  Republicants are furious with other Republicants. 

Representative Peter King and Governor of New Jersey, Chris Christie, are two angry politicians.  And they're both Republicants.  And they're both angry at other Republicants.

Why all the anger?  Of Republicants for other Republicants?

Because Christe and King represent people who have had their lives destroyed by Hurricane Sandy.  But the Republicants in Congress refused to vote on a bill that would have helped those people who had their lives destroyed by Hurricane Sandy.

In fact, House Speaker John Boehner – the most disliked, miserable man in Washington – refused to even bring the relief bill to a vote.

Why would Boehner refuse a vote for a bill that would help people who have had their lives destroyed by Hurricane Sandy?

Because it costs money to help people who had their lives destroyed by natural disasters like hurricanes.  And some flat earth members of Boehner's Republicant Caucus (known as chuckleheads by outgoing local pol. Steve LaTourette) are dead set against spending money. 

On anything.  For any reason.

Those caucus members are Tea Partiers.  Tea Partiers are fiscal conservatives.  They don't like spendin' money on nuthin'.  For any reason.  Even for fellow Americans who have had their lives destroyed by Hurricane Sandy.

Which is ironic because the people who have had their lives destroyed by Hurricane Sandy live in New York and New Jersey, two states that send more money in the form of taxes to the federal government than they receive back in benefits.  The Tea Party reps, on the other hand, come from districts that GET THE BENEFITS OF THE TAXES PAID BY THE RESIDENTS OF NEW YORK AND NEW JERSEY WHO NOW NEED HELP.

Where do those Tea Partiers think the money their districts receive comes from?  The Money Tree?

It's also ironic that King and Christie, being Republicants, are members of a party that since 1993 has been opposed to any tax increases.  Ironic because TAXES WILL PAY FOR THE DISASTER RELIEF CHRISTIE AND KING ARE SO UPSET ABOUT.

Where did King and Christie think the money was coming from?  The tooth fairy?

It's such a pleasure to watch Republicant politicians learn about irony.  I hope they're enjoying it as much as I am.
